introduction: children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder have problem in sustain attention that is necessary for learning. the purpose of present study is comparing explicit and implicit memory in children with attention deficit disorder and typically developing children. material and methods: in present cross sectional study, fifteen children with attention deficit disorder compare...

the supremacy of adaptation and imitation of antecedents over innovation is one of the features of arab poetry after fall of abbasid dynasty. however, literary borrowing which is deliberate and combined with tastefulness and elegance yields an appropriate effect and association on readers. technically, in rhetoric, if a poet borrows a hemistich, a verse or some verses from others' poems as...

Thomas Rowlandson’s print, The anatomist, published by Thomas Tegg of Cheapside on 12 March 1811, is one of Rowlandson’s most recognizable caricatures with a medical theme. For the modern day non-historian, Rowlandson’s comic prints, particularly the more abundant social as opposed to political caricatures, are characteristically transparent and easily accessible to interpretation, no doubt con...

The neuropeptide oxytocin is essential for mammalian parturition and lactation. Recent animal studies suggest that oxytocin is also implicated in the central nervous control of behavior including learning and memory. There has been little investigation, however, of the impact of oxytocin on human memory. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a single dose of intranasal oxyt...

The meaning and importance of implicit prejudice is a source of considerable debate. One way to advance this debate is to assess whether implicit prejudice can predict independent variance, beyond that predicted by explicit prejudice, in meaningful and unambiguous behaviors or behavioral intentions. In the current research, drug and alcohol nurses reported their level of stress working with inj...

In my talk, I will propose that one source of information the interpretation process makes use of in determining the meaning of an utterance are conceptual frames which are evoked in the hearer by the expressions used in the utterance. The frames provide potential discourse referents in the form of thematic roles which may or may not get further specified in the course of interpreting an uttera...

Children a re prodigious word learners . able to gain substantial information abou t a word's meaning o n the basis of even a single encounter with the word in context . T w o experiments a r e reported which test the hypothesis that the notion "possible word meaning' ' plays a role in constraining the inferences that adult language users make abou t new words encountered in coniext.

Recently, there has been great interest both in the development of cross-linguistically applicable annotation schemes and in the application of syntactic parsers at web scale to create parsebanks of online texts. The combination of these two trends to create massive, consistently annotated parsebanks in many languages holds enormous potential for the quantitative study of many linguistic phenom...

This paper presents a Chinese dependency syntax for treebanking. The syntax contains 13 word classes and 34 dependency types. A format of treebank based on the syntax is also proposed for the applications of computational and general linguistic research. Some experiments show that the treebank based on the proposed dependency syntax can be used for training and evaluating the dependency parser ...

Objectives: Cerebral hemispheres functioning have been found to be abnormal in children with ASD. The role of lateralization in implicit and explicit motor learning has received little attention in ASD researches. The main goal of this study is investigating the differences between two hands implicit and explicit motor learning in children with ASD and typical matched group. Methods: In the ...
